Pope Francis has called human trafficking "an open wound on the body of contemporary society." In this monograph, Elise Graveline Hilton discusses both the economic and moral fallo ut of modern-day slavery. With an estimated 21 million people trafficked annually, the business of buying and selling human beings for both labor and sexual exploitation is burgeoning.
